Reasons for the withdrawal of Yehia El Fakharany's series "El Ostad" from Ramadan 2025

Producer Gamal El Adl explained the reasons for the withdrawal of the series “Al-Ustadh” from competing in the Ramadan 2025 drama season. The series was being prepared to star the great star Yehia El-Fakharany, who is considered one of the icons of Egyptian and Arab drama.

Reasons for the withdrawal of the series “Al-Ustadh” from the competition in Ramadan 2025 During a phone call with the “Hadith Al-Qahira” program, El-Adl confirmed that the desire to cooperate with El-Fakharany was the dream of director Mando El-Adl, and the production company shared the same desire. However, some obstacles caused the project to be stopped, including the lack of time and the buyer company’s delay in responding.

Obstacles that led to the cessation of work Al-Adl explained that Dr. Yehia El-Fakharany prefers to participate in works in which the script is completed before filming begins, which makes time a crucial factor in preparing the work. He added that the delay in the company buying the series’ approval made things difficult, which prompted them to stop preparations. Gamal El-Adl pointed out that it is not possible to present a star of Yehia El-Fakharany’s stature in a work that is not properly prepared, denying rumors that the director had withdrawn from the project.

The future of the series and the fate of its showing Gamal El Adl hinted at the possibility of producing the series outside the Ramadan season, or perhaps considering participating in it in Ramadan 2026, if the appropriate circumstances are available.

He stated that the idea of cooperation with Al-Fakharani has not ended, but it needs better preparation and appropriate conditions to ensure the success of the work.

It is noteworthy that Yehia El Fakharany's latest work was the series "Atbat El Bahja", which was previously shown and dealt with the life of a former undersecretary who seeks to face life's challenges and provide happiness for his family.
